China is becoming one of the leading countries for their wildly producing and utilizing of the large amount of architectural curtain walls. However, those architectural curtain walls which were built nearly 20 years before may be out of function since their service periods were beyond their designed lives. Furthermore, the related security problems occurred frequently in many countries. The author think it is one of the problems which should be seriously treated as soon as possible, and it is necessary to investigate some comprehensive inspection and analysis methods.In this dissertation, the author try to find an efficient investigation and analysis method of architectural curtain walls through theoretical and experimental analysis, and get some interesting results, which are listed as follows,1. Seismic performance estimation index system of architectural curtain wall. The height of structure, the soil types, seismic fortification intensities, main structural styles were taken in accounted while estimating the seismic performance of architectural curtain walls.2. Shaking table test method research on architectural curtain wall. Shaking table test method and relative theories were put forward thoroughly on the base of summering the experiences of the former researchers' and the author's practices. The author raised a new shaking table test method, which use the relative displacement spectrum and the acceleration spectrum to detect the seismic performance of the architectural curtain wall.3. Architectural curtain wall security estimation method based on Fuzzy Theory. Complicated factors should be considered when detecting the architectural curtain wall, therefore, the Fuzzy Theory is considered to be one efficient approach to deal with the securities of architectural curtain walls. This method is proved to be theoretic, systemic and scientific.4. The general security estimation on the architectural curtain wall. The overall...
